A couple shots of tequila.

Crispy, clean, brand new sheets on the bed. Really nice.

Someone rubbing lotion on my back or slowly brushing my hair. Or, hearing my cat purr.

Many things...and all very different from each other. Going hiking, a back massage, petting my dogs, cool air blowing in my window as I fall asleep, snuggling.

soaking in my hot tub

By myself, give me a beer and a football game. If the g/f is around, a fire with wine or a dip in the hot tub is nice(although that puts her to sleep and I don't get anything)

A really good back rub and / or music.

My s/o spooning with me. One of my cats snuggling up with me. The absolute peace really early in the morning before my obnoxious neighbors come out of their coffins....

Being near the water at night Music Rain The smells and sounds of Fall

A heavy rain or a watching big snow flakes fall.

I think the sounds of waves crashing is soothing.

A good night's sleep, the smell of lavender, a nice hot cup of tea, a warm blanket in winter, the soft melodic chirping of songbirds outside my window, the sound of trees blowing in the wind, raindrops falling on the roof, the sound of my children laughing and talking happily.

A really good thunderstorm :)

This might sound weird, but I really love rocking chairs :)

Great music and a lovely cool glass of Chardonnay :)

Music. Dancing. Dancing to music.

Bubble baths.:D

music and a relaxing bath.:)

Cuddling during a movie

Petting our sweet Miss Tigger..she climbs up on the sofa, curls around next to me, and just sits there..I pet her and it is very soothing, relaxing and enjoyable for both of us. She is a very smart cat..she gives Jim and I equal attention! :)Everyone wins! :)

Having a beautiful woman in my sight.

The sound of moving water: an aquarium, a river, the oceans waves breaking on the shore and some instrumental music.

Music.

A bottle of coke and a slice of chocolate cake its the only thing that is soothing when Im stressed :)

Music ~ late nights ~ early mornings ~ thoughtful words ~ calm positive people :)

Aw wow there are so many things. Some common ones like the ones mentioned here and others. Let's see... ~snuggling into my soft beany piglet stuffed bear (sorry if that sounds childish lol) ~wind blowing through the trees, feeling fresh air come in through a window when you're inside with stale air ~rolling waves, trickling brooks/streams, rainstorm with thunder/lightning, having your window open a little bit to listen to the sharp sound of the rain (as well as when it's closed and the muffled sound) ~those big feather-down comforters, ahh throwing that over you, wrapping it around you, even balling it up and squeezing it ~the part of a manicure where you get a massage from your elbows down (and any other massage for that matter mm) ~soft slow wet kissing mmm so very nice (lips, as well as on the neck omg amazing) ~being wrapped up in your partner's warm strong embrace ~soft piano or sax music ~smell of fresh pine and wood when walking through the woods ~thinking back to your childhood about some of these simple things and how you felt as a child when they occurred. Taking such contentment from them, and even if a longing occurs as an adult with remembering that, there's always a soothing/comforting feeling ~having my hair brushed or when your partner brushes his hand along your hair from the top of your head down the side to the bottom in a comforting/protective way ~having your feet rubbed after a long hard day when they're in racks of pain and discomfort ~taking a long drive on an open road/highway with the windows down and music playing ~(and a more non-vanilla one, a big one for me) a spanking. I get so much from this as a submissive and such release. Yes it may hurt at times and is harsh, but for me it's like beating any negative emotions out of me so to speak. Emotions that are sometimes hard or impossible to deal with/express in other, conventional ways. For me it's like punching a punching bag even though metaphorically I'm the bag lol. And when it's over, it's like floating down from a high and letting the plug out from a whirlwind tub, all of it just draining and releasing out of me. Then there's the comfort at the end, the rubbing, caressing, soft hushed tones of comforting words, and being wrapped in his arms. *siiiigh* :)

A hot bath, long and steamy, lying there in the hot water. Maybe some bubbles:)

A good massage.

Hearing the rain fall on the roof on a warm might. Maybe a soak in the hot tub outside with the breeze and rustling of the leaves.

A nice, fine Acid Ronin cigar by Drew Estates, on a cool evening, out on my back deck!

Rain, cold air blowing in my window, the sound of wind......

Music and candles :)

Reading in hidden coves Simon and Garfunkel Rocking on the porch swing Watching sports while listening to music

New Age Music and reading science fiction.

A hot shower.

a good sip of vintage wine.

A good massage!

Getting my Butt cheeks massaged after a long hard day of sitting on my ass all day.

the darkness and sorwd fighting. also hard core music that can calm the beast,

Oil Massage Soft Piano Muzic :D

i would be most soothed by my husband just putting his arms around me and holding me....not that it would ever happen, but i can dream....

A good work out, like a football match or something. As my body heats and starts slowly getting tired, my mind at the same time cools down and by the end of it, im as zen as i get :)

Quiet time by myself .. Bailey's in one hand, paintbrush in the other, with some good music on the background.

My husband's voice.

A hot cup of soup on a cold winter day:)
